The NRAA President's Match
It wasn't just the temperatures that were hot!
What a great way to start 2023’s NRAA Festival of Shooting! Two days of the best in action! Conditions were often difficult but the cream rose to the top as Chris Schwebel buckled down for an impressive win in TRA. Sporter was having its first run at a National event – and wow oh wow, competitors were on fire!
Our President’s winners for 2023:
- TRA – Chris Schwebel
- TRB – Craig Ryan
- FSA – Catherine Keogh
- FSB – Lynton McRostie
- FO – Sean Campbell
- FTR – Daniel Galea

It was a difficult start for some on day 1 of the President’s Match with 2x 500 yards completed this morning. TRA saw Mick Dickenson and Chris Schwebel the only 2 TR shooters to remain clean. Adrian Siebel, John Alp and Jacob Campbell are the only F Class shooters to be clean in F Open. The morning started rather choppy and conditions were difficult to read for many. As the day has progressed, conditions have eased and cloud has certainly taken the edge of the biting sun.
